Dear Jennifer, Not sure about coincidence, but if you go to http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/hZ.2ADIB/6.1.1 , you may find what you seek! Clifford Allison. _____________________________________ Hello, I am also trying to find information on a Allison from scarborough?, yorkshire, England My #2GGfather was born March 16, 1810 in scarborough, yorkshire, england, he immigrated to the U.S. in 1928. He married Phoebe Ann Gifford April 02, 1938. I have all kinds of information on Phoebe and her ancestors. NOTHING on Thomas before coming to the U.S., so any help here would sure be appreciated.
